Info
Jakub Hrůša conducts three works that connect the specific tonality of Czech music with the language of 20th-century sound: Bohuslav Martinů’s First Symphony, composed in 1942 in American exile, evokes his lost homeland through traditional folk melodies and dance rhythms, while simultaneously celebrating the beginning of a new chapter in his life. The nostalgic Suita rustica by his student Vítězslava Kaprálová is based on folkloric themes, and Josef Suk’s passionate Fantasy for Violin and Orchestra, with Julia Fischer as the soloist, is also unmistakably influenced by Czech music.
